This temple is located at Chirakkadavu which is on S.H. ( Muvattupuzha - Punalur Sate Highway ), about 32-km from Akshra Nagari (Kottayam City). This shrine has over 1000 years of history. The deity is Mahadeva (Shiva) and the idol is in the form of ‘Swayambu Lingam’ which was reportedly detected from the shadow of a Bilwa tree, the ancestors testify. The temple, probably built during the reign of Alwars at the site where the Lingam was seen, gained glorification gradually.
